Chanel Joues Contraste in Fresque

This was the first Joues Contraste(JC) blush I purchase. I do not know why I was so late to jump on the band wagon. I know own and love 4 of these babies. Fresque was another Chanel item recommended for my by John Fussell.

It is housed in the typical Chanel piano black packaging. The blush itself is a cute little dome. However, it houses more product than it looks like it does. Word on the street says that its insanely difficult to use one of these babies up.

I would describe the color as a nudey apricot. The formula is nice and glowy. However, be wary. This color is pretty darn light. I'm about NC20 and it shows up just barely on me. I like it for something nice and light to pair with a smokey eye. I do believe the darker ladies may be able to make use of this too as a complexion brightener. It definitely brightens up my face.

This is a pretty heavy swatch. I basically swiped my finger on it and then swiped it on my arm, several times... And it still barely shows up.
